Ingredients

  • 3 potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons of vinegar
  • 4 tablespoons of oil
  • ½ purple onion
  • 2 bacon slices
  • 1 gherkin or caper
  • Fresh parsley as desired
  • Salt and pepper as desired

Instructions

  • Peel and slice the potatoes to cook them in abundant water with salt until they’re soft, but not too much so they don’t break up and lose their shape. You can also boil them with their skin and then peel them and slice them.
  • Remove the potatoes from the stove, drain them and set them aside to use them later. Cut the bacon in small pieces and fry it in hot oil until it’s well brown.
  • Cut the rest of the ingredients in small pieces as well: the parsley, the onion and the gherkin in case you use it.
  • Mix the oil and the vinegar well, then add the onion, the bacon and the gherkin or the caper, and then spread them over the already cooked potatoes.
  • Check the saltiness, add some pepper as you desire as well as some finely cut parsley.
  • And now our potato salad without mayonnaise is ready to be served.
  • Now we’ll tell you how to prepare it with mayonnaise.
